Dieting without influence
okay so for the past 2 weeks I have been eating right and exercising everyday. I have passed up so many sweets in the office, I went out one night and had salad and water, not my norm hamburger and 2 beers.
So now they are having an office party, and a really nice lady hands me a sliver of cake. I take 2 bites and get caught throwing it out! I feel so silly now. 3 people came up and asked me if I did not like it.
Then tomorrow night, everyone is going out after work for drinks. This is so frustrating. I haven't been out in 2 weeks. But I want to lose weight on my saturday weigh in. I know I should stick to lite beers or vodka with no mixers, but dieting=no life!!!!
I am either chunky and having a good time or slimmer sipping on H2O

Re: Dieting without influence
It's hard to have willpower when going out w/ friends! Try to do extra good the rest of the week and maybe you can have a slice of cake or a drink or two when you are w/ others. This is what I try to do to make up for the bad stuff I eat/drink.

Re: Dieting without influence
thanks!! 3 weeks ago I went to a BBQ and had too many beers. I went home that night and my dad invited me for a run. I felt gulity that I drank so many calories, that I said sure(I was totally buzzed) and went running. Well..I was totally annoying. I kept swating non existant bugs, laughing, and not running straight. The good time guilt kills me!!!
but if I go out tomorrow, then do soooo good on Friday and run at night, but you know what that means, staying home on Friday.
Too bad weed is illegal!! calorie free

Re: Dieting without influence
Dieting has got to be the hardest thing to do. It's all proportion...have a drink, ONE drink and hold on to it all night (sip it so it goes down slower )
Good Luck

Re: Dieting without influence
thanks all!!! It is funny because I am not really a sweets eater and I can go to bed on an empty belly, but giving up the drinking is hard!!!!!! For the last 2 weeks I have been exercising and putting myself to bed early. I have been bored out of my mind.
Karissa-I hear you about the BBQs I have to go to one on Saturday and one on Sunday. I have gotten into the habit of throwing out 1/2 my burger, or 1/2 my hot dog. Too much pressure, especially when I have to stare at my beanpole DH all day

Re: Dieting without influence
it is so hard- i have been having to be extra careful this summer- between all the lunches and dinners withthe girls- it adds up...
Heres what I have been doing:
I try to eat healthy during the week and leave one day during the weekend where I can eat what I want- however I watch my portions...
just cutting out the drinks- sugar drinks i enjoy like gatorade and vitamin water make a HUGE difference. I stick to lots of water during the week. no soda- it bloats...
If i do go out for drinks i stick to light beer or my vodka/seltzers double limes.... ill have wine once and ahwhile but will stick to white...
if i eat a burger, i eat the bun- ill eat half.
ive switched from whites to whole grains- whole wheat breads, bagels and rice.
and i try to exercise even though I HATE it with a passion...

Re: Dieting without influence
Try vanilla vodka w/ diet coke. I drink it every time I go out. It tastes like cream soda and has very little calories.

don't you love vanilla vodka!! I drink it with diet coke or diet gingerale(when I make it at home)
I have been on a no soda kick, so I drank straight vodka on the cruise. It wasn't that bad at all.
I only drink absolute, have you tried absolute raspberry and diet coke? It is so good.
